Senlor Honor Students This is the third year that the Stoughton High School has experimented with having Senior Honor Students instead of the traditional valedictorian and salutatorian. Yes, it has proved successful, too. Honesty, sportsmanship, initiative, courtesy, and the capacity for responsibility, all serve as a basis for the selection of the honor students. On this new system, the seniors rate all fellow students, who are scholastically among the upper one-third of their class, on the traits listed above. The results of this are correlated with the recommendations of the fac- ulty. This plan has received much favorable com- ment during the short time it has been in existence here. 12 Natlonal Honor Soclety It is every upperclassman's inward hope that he will become a member of the National Honor So- ciety. Striving for years, a few students finally get their hearts' desires. But as everyone knows, all good things are achieved through hard work. You must be in the upper one-third of your class and have the desirable traits which label you as an outstanding student. The faculty selects the members, the ma- jority's being elected from the senior class, while a few are admitted from the junior class. The members of the National Honor Society are chosen on the basis of character, scholarship, service, and leadership. Bolmnz Roux' B, WRIGHT, P. Scmud Razr: J. JOHNSON, G. ANDERSON, G.

TO graduate from high school is one thing, but to ggaduate with the feeling of having accomplished something is another. In addition to the honors on these pages, there are several others. Selected junior stu- dents are sent to Badger States by the American Legion and their Auxiliary, while the W. C. T. U. presents a loving cup to a senior girl and boy. Students also have many opportunities to display their abilities in various contests. Awards and honors are won as a result of initiative, ambition, and hard work. They form an important part of every school system. LIONS CLUB AWARDS M. BARBER j. JOHNSON A. Sviom R.
